Christmas Is Coming,

Christmas is coming l' the little folks say, And the smiles on their faces grow broader each
 day;
 And they all watch their parents and deeply reflect On what they would like and what they expect. But they'll loudly cry "Chestnutl'' and laugh in If you speak of ''old Santa Claus" for not one
 trace
 Of the good old belief that so many beguiled Can be found in the breast of the latterday child Christmas is coming I'' the young man doth say, And then his thoughts turn in a natural way To what he must buy for his very best girl, And thought of the cost just makes his hair curl And the best girl" will wonder, when sizing his If a number ten slipper would fit his dear foots Or, if to the cigarette he should incline, If a nice meerschaum holder would bring him to
 time?
 Christmas is coming P! the parents, too, say, When the children sleeping all weary with play. And wish that their purse was as full of bright
 gold
 AS their hearts are with love for the lambs in their
 fold.
 Then vote to dispense with some long needed thing They want for their comfort, in order to bring larger degree of the bright Christmas cheer To the hearts of their little ones to them so dear. Christmas is coming I'' the old folks say, AS they gaze the little ones happy and gay, When they think with smile, perchance with a
 tear,
 Of the great Christmas day that to them so near. When the Christ child shall gently take from their
 weak hand The bent staff of life, and point to that land , Where Christmas is endless where joy is untold, Where feet grow not weary, where hearts grow not
 old.
 Yes, Christmas is coming to all once more, And it's radiance shines through the closing door Of the bygone year, and does it bring The song to our hearts that the angels sing Glory to God Good will to men I''
 9es the ndeed ring @ o 01F he nearts m agan That Christmas has come to us once again.

The ArIstocras,e LawIer Family.

lWaShlngtOn COSSlp bOSLOn IraVelerl
 Congressman Frank Lawler of Chicago is man of the people. He has no par ticular love for those who lean back on their dignity and brag about the proni- nenee of their ancestors. MT. Lawler has climbed up to a position h Congress from the lowest rounds of the social lad der He has been laborer, 8 letter carrier, a keeper of an influential ginmill, ward politician, a Chicago alderman, and Con- gressman, successively. He is one of the esthearted men in the world, and is all ways ready to do kind act for a friend. Mir. Lawler recently had occasion to call on Secretary Endicott, and he found that gentleman surrounded by 8 frozen halo which displeased him. MT. Endicott ap- peared to be somewhat bored by the per sistency of the member of the legislative branch of the government, and was not at all disposed to pay much attention to him. Lawler stuck to him, however, and at last the the august Secretary thawed out somewhat towards the Congress- man, and proceeded to give him few points on the history of Massachusetts, especially glories of the colonial days, and inciden- tally mentioned that his ancestors were among the foremost in Massachusetts. Warming up to his theme-and this is about the only subject that will warm him-he pro- ceeded to trace the family back until he had passed down to where the Adauses first rose on the genealogical horizon, and wound up by saying:
 FfWhy, MT. Lawler, we have succeeded in tracing the Endicott family back to the earliest stage of the Norman conquest of England. In fact, the Endicotts were known before William the Cenqueror was heard of"
 civilian the Conqueror the blank, replied Mir. Lawler. 'fDooring the pasth summer, whin my legislative dooties have not been so pressing, I have paid 8 good deal of attintion to the airly history of the Law Ter family William the Conqueror Why, he's nowhere. I found that the Lawiers were a prominent family on earth even before the food"
 To say that Mir. Endicott was astonished would scarcely express his feelings. He almost gasped for breath, but at length happy thought struck him.
 "Mr. Lawler," said he with whitening scorn in his voice, Eff you can trace the Lawlers back before the flood, how is it that we never heard anything of the family in the Ark9''
 For 8 moment, and for a moment only the Chicago man hesitated. Then he recovered himself and instantly replied:

sEORET SESSIONS.

It is credit to Senator PIatt of this State, and through him to the, State, that he has taken the most prominent part in the move ment to do away with secret sessions of the Senate. At the last session Senator Platt worked hard to have resolution passed which would abolish them, but he did not find the assistance he ought to have had and nothing was done This session he will try again.
 There does not seem to be any good reason why the Senate should hold secret sessions very often. As Senator Platt says: We should rarely have need for chamber conferences. The consideration of a treaty with a foreign power is matter.of public policy of the highest importance and the people have a right to know what is said for and against the proposed measure. The pub become necessary to hold session with closed doors, will be much more implicit if, under ordinary circumstances, the rule is observed of considering these subjects in open session. As to the advantages of considering appoint ments in open session, to begin with, we would have better class and the general  civil service of the country would be im- proved. do not thinh that one case in 25 would arise which might not be so consid- cred. The character and record of eandi- dates for the public service are matters of general interest, and their free and open dis cussion would have 8 salutary influence. Peculiar conditions might surround certain cases, making it expedient to consider them in private, but the great majority might much better be discussed in open session.
 This is good sense, and the country is with Senator Platt in this matter if his fellow senators not. It Is asserted that many of the senators are interested in the continuance of secret sessions; that agree ments are made among senators by which members vote for the confirmation of other members candidates if the other members will vote for the confirmation of theirs; and that other abuses have grown up. The best way to clear up the whole matter is to open the doors

 Mr. Duncan, who is looking after the welfare of the Metlakahtla Indians, who for Alaska, says that the people remaining at the old Metlakahtla are subjected to such robbery and insult as are enough to drive them to desperation, but hopes they may avoid violence. The bishop and magistrate claim all the land and buildings as the prop erty of the church or of the English mis- sionary society, and would allow the people to remove only their personal effects. They seized the sawmill and more than eighty thousand feet of lumber, the cannery build ings, store, workshops, church building, vil- 1age hall and guest house. He thinks that it was the purpose of the authorities to pro- yoke the Indians to violence, so that they might have pretext for punishing them. One or two afrays did take place, but for tunately there was no bloodshed
 The result of the experiment which the Republicans of the county in which Cleve- land, Ohio, is situated, are to make will be looked for with interest. The plan is to abolish political conventions and make nom nations directly from the caucuses. The object is to give voters an opportunity to vote for the candidates themselves rather than for delegates to choose candidates, the assumption being, apparently, that when they have that opportunity more of them will attend the primaries, and the possibility of machine made nominations be lessened. It is argued, also, in behalf of the plan that it brings strong candidates promptly to the front and gives the nominee greater certainty of receiving the full party vote on election day. In Pennsylvania the plan seems to have worked benefcial1y, as from 75 to 90 per cent. of the members of the party are frequently present at the primaries. This is a much better showing than is common else- Uhara
